Objectives: To estimate the associations between body mass index (BMI) and mortality and between BMI and complications in patients receiving venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and to estimate if any mortality association was mediated by complications.

Design: Retrospective analysis of an international, multicenter registry.

Setting: ICUs.

Background: The association, if any, between the transmitral mean pressure gradient (TMPG) after mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair and 1-year mortality is controversial in patients undergoing mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair with the MitraClip system. We sought to estimate the association between intraoperatively measured residual mitral regurgitation (rMR) and TMPG and 1-year mortality among patients undergoing mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair to facilitate decisions on additional devices.

Methods: In patients with severe secondary (functional) MR, we analyzed registry data using generalized estimating equations.

Objectives: To determine the relationship between all-cause hospital mortality and morbidity in patients treated with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and to assess whether this relationship is mediated via body mass index (BMI).

Design: Using the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) registry, venoarterial ECMO runs from 2015 to 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Patient demographics, ECMO indications, and complications for survivors and decedents were univariately compared.

Background: Kidney dysfunction is a common complication in septic patients. Studies have identified numerous risk factors for sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (S-AKI), yet there is wide variability in the incidence even among patients with similar risk factors, suggesting the presence of additional uncharacterized risk factors, including genetic differences. The expansion of biobanks, advances in genotyping, and standardized diagnostic criteria have enabled large-scale, hypothesis-generating studies into the genetic mechanisms underlying S-AKI.

Background: To determine if colonisation with drug resistant organisms is associated with worse outcomes in patients who subsequently develop sepsis.

Methods: Retrospective study of patients with sepsis employing logistic regression and linear regression to determine the independent association of colonisation with adverse outcomes.

Results: Mortality was higher in patients colonized with VRE [501 of 1937 (26%) v.
